Yahoo may have been one of the forefathers of the Internet, but it didn’t take long for names like Google and Amazon to drown them out. However, recently they have earned the nickname of Comeback Kid. Earlier in the week, Yahoo stock was riding higher than ever. This interesting information was found on imassera in their article, “Yahoo Bets on the Only Thing that matters in the Semantic Web.”

Yahoo has recognized the relevance of the semantic web and has invested in products and services that will help them to continue this trend.

Many tools are being built on the concept of natural language processing and understanding to make discovery more meaningful by semantically enriching content.

Access Innovations, developer of the M.A.I. machine-assisted indexing system and specializing in complex coding, tagging, and indexing, provides a range of services that deliver tag integrity.
